Concept

The idea is, that the artwork should in some kind make reference to the release number or name. I have chosen the name. The artwork of Pixar's Wheezy was not taken because there might be licensing constraints. Therefore pictures of real penguins were drawn. Another input was the wonderful first of April joke of BBC in 2008, where they reported the discovery of flying penguins. The Debian swirl represents the source that emits the new release in form of a flying penguin.

Plymouth: An SVG file (or at the very least a collection of PNGs for the different elements from the scene, and the background)

Debian Installer

(planned)

800x75, 16bit (65536 colors) + possibly a gtk theme to match the colours of the image (the theme must be stripped and default custom buttons will not be used - see the discussion about the stripped Bladr theme)

Desktop Wallpaper

(in work)

1920x1200 - 16:10 widescreen

cropped to 1280x1024 5:4

cropped to 1600x1200 4:3

cropped to 1920x1080 16:9

SVG file available, but background is still bitmap (working on it)

GDM 3

(planned)

Same requirements as the desktop wallpaper

SVG format recommended

The picture must transition smoothly to the desktop wallpaper (with a fade-in effect).
